The design in detail

At the center of the print, a slate grey stethoscope curves upward into an open heart between its earpieces while the lower tubing forms another gentle loop ending in a heart-shaped chestpiece. Behind the instrument rests a circular retro emblem filled with horizontal stripes of burnt orange, warm gold, muted sage, and light aqua. The top phrase “A NURSING LEGEND” arches smoothly over the sunburst, while the matching phrase “HAS RETIRED” sits in a grounded row underneath. Distressed flecks run across the lettering and colors, giving the whole piece a weathered vintage badge aesthetic from the nursing profession.
